Jason was not in the mood to go to the lair. He knew he was in big trouble for last. He probably was going to be scowled but Master Yuuta or worse Slash. Jason sighs as he enters the lair he hears a conversation in the dojo. Out curiosity Jason walks over to the dojo and listens in.

***********************************************************

"He got way too close to the enemy and nearly got caught !" Slash exclaims as he paces around the dojo.

Master Yuuta listens to Slash as he sips his green tea.

"He is young pron to do trouble some things" Master Yuuta explains.

"All them are !" Slash snares as he slams his fist on the medition tree.

Shinigami who had been hang out on the medtion tree, nearly fell off the branch she was breached on.

"Whoa take it easy Slash !" Shinigami shouts, jumping  down from the tree.

Slash gives her a death glare. Shinigami holds her hands in defense.

"You are the main reason Jason almost got caught in the first place" Slash growls. 

¨Oh please it was not enterarly my Idea to throw a ball of yawn at Tiger freak¨ Shinigami argues.

¨NO excuses, Shini !¨ Slash shouts. Shinigami stiffens when he calls her that. It had been years since he called her by her nickname. That's the name she used when she first meet Slash. But back then Slash was a very different person. 

¨I known you since you where a little girl, you did this to mess your enemy and to dis-regrade my orders !¨ Slash snares.

Shinigami growls but controles her temper. ¨When we meet, I remeber telling you, you don't know anything about me ¨ Shinigami snares as she picks up Midnight.  ¨And if it wasn't for me you would of been killed,Slash¨ Shinigami said as she walks to exit before saying, "Remember that" then she leaves.

Slash sighs in frustration.

"She's right, When the foot was about kill me Shini saved me just in time" Slash said.

"That was the day when you met  Irma, Jason and Casey" Master Yuuta said softly.

"It's a day I wish to forget" Slash mutters. Yuuta raises an eyebrow.

"Why ?" Master Yuuta asks.

¨When I meet them they where just kids, Hell there still kids" Slash said as he looks at the tree.

"They may be kids but they more than capable of handling themselves" Yuuta said as takes another sip of tea.

"Even when the time comes to face Shredder ?" Slash states as Yuuta looks at him. "Do you think they'll be ready then ?" Slash asks.

Yuuta sighs. "I do not have a clear answer however time will only tell" Yuuta replied.

Slash takes one last look at the medtion tree before leaving the dojo.

Jason who had been watching the whole time sighs in relief. Maybe he wasn't in trouble after all.

"I know your there Jason !" Master Yuuta calls out.

Jason stiffened. "Busted" Jason muttered as he enters the dojo. "How long have you known ?" Jason asks.

"Whole time" Master Yuuta replies with a grin.  Jason sighs.

"Master, I'm sorry about last night I..."

Master Yuuta stops him before he could finish. "I am not mad at you my son" Master Yuuta said softly.

"Your not ?" Jason asks suprised.

"No but you must be more careful, The Shredder must not know who you are" Yuuta explains.

"I understand master" Jason said.

Master Yuuta smiles. "Mediate with me my son" Master Yuuta said.

Jason sits down across  from Master Yuuta as he got in medtion postions.

"Clear your head" Yuuta  said. Jason closes his eyes and begins to mediate.
